I agree in principle - do the right thing, keep code lean, sane and
correct.
I disagree in practice - in many cases it's impossible to avoid using
and interacting with sucky software. See the case of surf itself, and
its dependency on GTK.
At the end of the day, we enjoy suckless code but are stuck with sucky
behavior.
